[Q] Replace Display Edge - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all!
I´m very happy with my i9000, but since a couple of weeks it looses the paint of the display edge (don´t know how to call it ^^).
Is it possible to replace it? I´m very hacked off by it
Greetings,
lurchi17

Lol, i've been facing the exact same problem....i don't think there's anything that we can do apart from changing the whole body....to avoid more damage i've been using covers....

But is it possible to replace the full body? Don´t want to use a cover due to its inefficiency...

[Q] [q] the rarest mysterious problem on xperia

I've been searching for internet for weeks and i still coudn't find the solution for this thing ..... my screen scrambles and jumbles everytime i connect to the internet using 3g....3dge.. etc but not wifi
here is my phone's background:
when i purchased it it has no problems at all...
after 1 and half years due to daily use keypad gets hard to press and the screen has a lot of scratches casing too..
so i decided to change the case of the xperia an the tft resistive touchscreen and clean the whole thing..
after putting it all back together it runs fine... checking the landscape camera wifi etc..
i decided to change rom because i think i could make it so new that even the os is changed...
i follow the basic process and it work fine..
after a week i notice that when i connect to the internet 3g... it jumbles the pixels of the screen in the upper part of the x1 even on landscape mode.. it is still there....
i searched the internet and i found old questions never been answered;;

somehow related to connecting 3gs..
i never change to 6.1 because of it's lack of features..
ive change 6.5 roms but the problem is still there....

can somebody... please.... im begging you.... explain these problem with me and how can i solve it....???? PLEASE..... I APPRECIATE YOUR REPLY OR RESPONSE PLEASE!!!! thank you and God Bless!!!
PLEASE THANK YOU.... I REALLY LOVE MY OLD PHONE... I DON'T WANT TO BUY ONE...
dude, seriously. no one answered? it's very common tiling issues. yours just happend due the notification icons animation. most probable cause is vga driver. search for alternative driver.
No idea dude. But you may try to reflash your X1 to other ROM. I had been facing almost similar connection problem, but mine, the WiFi is undetectable. So I try to reflash my ROM with other ROM. Fortunately, it's working back.
this might be some app problem rather than rom/driver issue although some rom/driver handle it better. i just experience the exact issue after installing weather4me app. disabling refresh(update weather) during startup solved mine. maybe there's background app/process that doing something similiar causing it.
I see 3 possible reasons for this behavior:
- the displaydriver of the 6.5-rom is not really compatible to the hardware.
To check this you can flash the original rom and test if everything works.
- the radio interferes the communication between display and board.
This can happen when the device is not reassembled as original
(broken/removed shielding, dust/dirt in connectors while reconnecting,...).
To check this you have to reassemble the phone again.
- damaged hardware thru electrostatic discharge when touching the electronics.
Unfortunately this can not be checked or repaired. You can only guess if this is a possible reason by answering this questions to you:
- did you wear part-synthetic clothes while working on the electronics ?
(this forces electrostatic charge)
- did you discharge "yourself" every some minutes by touching a grounded point ?
- did you lay the electronics on a plastic ground ?

[Q] Galaxy s motherboard replacement

Hello,
I have a busted galaxy s (memory card corrupted).. now i can get another one with a broken screen for a cheap price.. my question is, can i just replace the motherboard part where the MC is located, or must i replace the broken screen on the working one.. the screen replacement is a lot harder but i think it wont give me to much trouble.. i am wondering if the motherboard replacement will work without any IMEI or other parts of the phone conflicts.. have never done that before. If someone has, please tell me your experiences.
Both phones waranties are useles and tryed already. They are both unlocked euro phones gt i9000.
Thanks.
G. Lukic
The NAND flash is located on the mainboard which is separate from the screen.
You don't need to touch the display with its electronics - there are some display controllers.
Just change the mainboard and that's all
Thank you i thought so too. i had already put my phone apart 3 times, just to see if by some miracle nand would start working again stupid i know, but i was quite desparate..
hi does anybody know where can i find a mainboard for i9000 i googled with no result. i have my screen been replaced. now there are a few grey horizontal lines on it. the strange thing that they dissapere when i plug charger and when the temperature goes up. and sho
wing back when the phone goes colder. in the lab i was told that the problem is in the connector on the main board. and there is nothing to do with it. so can anybody tell me where to find a replacement? thank you.

yes,its hardware issue.
So my Galaxy S is broken
Is it really a hardwere issue ?
I have this too, but i recently had my screen replaced, I don't remember noticing it before (maybe i forgot). I think it is normal due to the sub-pixel (RGBG instead of RGB) make-up of the screen.
I have searched for it and it appears most people have it or don't notice it (We must be very eagle eyed). However I would like confirmation from someone with a SGS that has bought it new without a screen replacement.
Btw Rider17 is yours new? Has it had the screen replaced at any point? Can you post a picture? (I can't find my charger for my camera )
I bought it new,and if i notice i don't think so that it was replaced ,also i checked on google,and most if SGS users have this,i will take a picture and post it .
I have it on my Galaxy S, but the line is so small I barely notice it unless im looking for it.. and i only notice it on white backgrounds. But my screen is a replaced one and I cant remember if I had it before. But maybe your line is larger.. do you notice it on black backgrounds?
No it's only on white background noticeble ,it so tiny i hope it stay tiny
Go take it back. Why should you have to deal with a hardware issue if it's still within warranty and your warranty covers it?
Yea i have warranty but the line is not noticeble only if i put phone 1cm/inch to my eye,i read that a lot of users have same thing.

[Q] HTC One M7 Touchscreen Doesn't Work Partially On the NEW SCREEN

Hello guys! Saddly for me my touchscreen stopped working but the thing is that i bought a new screen assembly but i still have the same problem and the same spot doesnt work (on the digitzer, lcd works perfectly). I really dont know what to do i have tried to google my problem but people always solve there problem by replacing the screen and i did the samething and still nothing. I'm running the latest stock rom from at&t now but i have tried to flash viper rom and cleamrom, etc... but i have gotten the same result
i tought that it could be the digitzer connector on the motherboard but it looks new so i cant find the problem...
To be more specific the spot thats shown on the image does work but when i touch it, it shows that iam using 2 fingers when iam only using 1 its really anoying when i use the keyboard. When i touch that spot, the phone starts to select things arround the "dead" spot.
My apologies if i have made some dumb mistakes in the text, i'm from belgium so english isnt my mother laguage.
IF theres no liquid damage.
The phone was working just fine, then mysteriously stopped working in one spot. I would guess replace digitizer (aka glass) But if replacing glass has yielded the same result. Now it gets tricky. Now its either a board level issue or a problem with the Kernel interfacing with its hardware.
Since not a stock device and has been rooted with custom ROM its possible those software mods might have affected it.
My suggestion is do your best to go back to completely stock and hope for the best.

Thanks but iam already on stock i have used RUU to reset the phone, same result. And liqued damage is possible any idea what would help?
Or is it possible that the connector on the board is broken?
As you start to eliminate your possibilities the fixes become more difficult.
If your back on stock everything and still bad then its going back to board level stuff. Meaning the connector on the board or something along those lines.
If thats the case then the fix is near impossible.
Might want to get a good strong magnifying glass out and see what you can find.

ok i will see what i can find, and thanks for your assistance.
Did you ever find out what it was?
My HTC One has a 1/4" section that doesn't respond to touch at all.
Hi
I have the same problem in my HTC ONE E9 PLUS where a longitudinal line along the screen does not respond. Does anybody find a solution for that please?

Most likely a faulty digitizer, replace your lcd assy.

Thanks for the advice, I have the same problem, and replacing the battery didn't solve it.
To be honest, sometimes the screen works again for some minutes, but most of the time it's orange. What kind of capacitors should I use?
